Hi
(2, 4)
(-4,-5) SLOPE m = 9/6 = highlight%283%2F2%29 | Using the point-slope formula, m+=%28y%5B2%5D+-+y%5B1%5D%29%2F%28x%5B2%5D+-+x%5B1%5D%29
Plot points and connect with Line (The Equation of the line is y = (3/2)x + 1)
Slope = highlight%283%2F2%29 as y increases/decreases by 3, x increases/decreases by 2
